研究概览
简要总结
The overarching aim of the study is to evaluate in a randomized trial the impact of a family-supported intervention compared to a standard veteran-focused telephone counseling control group to promote smoking cessation among cancer and heart disease patients.
详细描述
ANTICIPATED IMPACT(S) ON VETERAN'S HEALTHCARE:
Veterans with chronic disease who continue to smoke exact a significant burden on the VA health care system. Effective smoking cessation programs, that target veterans who continue to smoke after the diagnosis of a smoking-related chronic illness, are needed.
BACKGROUND/RATIONALE:
Chronic diseases related to tobacco exposure are common among veterans. Persistent tobacco use after being diagnosed with these diseases decreases quality of life and survival. Yet, 30% of veterans with these conditions continue to smoke. Researchers have found that the social environment is important for smokers. In our current NCI-funded study, 70% of veterans with lung cancer identified at least one family member who smokes and 45% live with a family member that smokes. A family-supported smoking cessation intervention timed to follow a veteran's diagnosis of cancer or heart disease could be effective for helping veterans quit smoking.
